Came to check the name. But am disappointed name checker over to you...����

oh, you're disappointed because he is one of your own.
Now you know crime doesn't have a particular tribe!

But let us also tell ourselves the truth...

Nigerians should learn to be law abiding and keep a low profile in other people's country.

With the rate at which our names are being linked to a lot of unsavory incidents, soon nobody will raise an outcry in a case involving Nigerians. Because they will feel it's deserved.

Word for today

bro that is not really crime it was a misunderstanding and the write up says it mistakenly hit the police and that is better than pushing drugs

Accidental punches can be painful, you are not prepared for it, you don expecrit

These people just day fall person hand

No big deal. He'll receive a fine of two thousand bath and would be free. He should be able to afford that. You cant have the guts to fight in a foreign land and not be rich na.
